Primary BMDMs were obtained from rats’ rear leg’s bone marrow and differentiated to macrophages for 6 days in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated FBS, 1% non-essential amino acids, penicillin, streptomycin, 2 mM glutamine, and 25 ng/ml M-CSF at 37 °C with 5% CO2.
Human recombinant TNF, Nec-1, zVAD, and BV6 were all synthesized at Genentech. LPS was purchased from InvivoGen, San Diego, CA, USA and TAK1 inhibitor 5z-7-oxozeanol from Bio-Techne Corporation, Minneapolis, MN, USA.

Generating Myeloid Progenitor Cells from Bone Marrow

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BM-derived myeloid progenitor cells were generated from hematopoietic progenitor cells isolated from BM using a Miltenyi MACS lineage depletion kit. Cells were stimulated for 3 d in IL-3 (25 ng/ml), IL-6 (25 ng/ml), and SCF (50 ng/ml), washed, and stimulated for indicated times with rIFN-α4 (2,000 U/ml, PBL Assay Science). BMDMs were differentiated by incubating total BM cells in 15-cm tissue culture plates with recombinant M-CSF (100 ng/ml; Genentech) in DMEM for 7-10 d. M-CSF (100 ng/ml) was replenished every 3 d during culturing. BMDMs were plated overnight in M-CSF, rested for 4 h and stimulated for the indicated times with rIFN-α4 (2,000 U/ml; PBL Assay Science). For cell transfection experiments, 3T3 cells were transfected using Lipofectamine LTX with plus reagent (Life Technologies) according to manufacturer’s instruction.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
